Undecided and rest assured I’ll remain that way as long as there are militant evolutionists screeching that I have to see it their way. The best way to keep me from doing something is to tell me that I HAVE TO do it.
Trust me, if I were a committed creationist I’d love nothing more than to boldly admit it just because.

People indeed may believe what they wish to, but do not force these opinions on anyone else unless you can justify for your actions; if an action is ethical, you are to do it.

Forcing of opinions works both ways but I can see you wouldn't understand. :roll:

Unfortunately, peoples' opinions effect their actions and when your actions effect me and you have no logical reason to do so, you do an unethical act and that is simply unacceptable.

Thought control, eh?
That sounds rather Orwellian but I can’t say I’m surprised.
If you don’t like my opinions stop reading my posts unless, that is, you like to torture yourself.


Except that evolution is not an opinion, it is a fact. You are, of course, free to believe in creation rather than evolution just like you are free to believe that the Earth is flat or that the moon is made of green cheese.


I think you missed my point by a few kilometers but whatever........


I'm not sure that I understand your point. I thought you said that you don't want to believe in evolution because evolutionists force their opinions down your throat. See the bolded part.

Mom and Dad were part of the Global "Orwellian brainwashing campain" when they told you "look both ways before crossing the street". So its your duty to get run over just so you can stick it to the Man.

Ok.
Got it.

You DO believe in evolution, and DONT believe in YEC, but despite that fact you defend YEC because... its your civic duty to "entertain".

Uh.. ok.

Well.. in the words of the late Kurt Cobain "here we are now.. ENTERTAIN us!".

Youve got the podium.

So do your duty of "entertaining" us by defending Young Earth Creationism.

Go for it!

I would say evolution is a "fact". We see it in action today with real physical changes in animals and plants in response to our actions. Pesticide and antibiotic immunity are the most obvious examples.

And I am Quaker!
